The best Craft Culture newsletters

A newsletter on Japanese carpentry and East Asian woodcraft culture and techniques, written by a journalist who is also a carpentry apprentice. Issues cover tool making, jigs, plane tuning and reflections on woodworking history.

Embroidery historian Yvette Stanton writes personal essays on the craft's culture, cost and accessibility, including whether traditional techniques should be allowed to die and why embroidery retreats are priced so high. The newsletter offers a reader considered opinion and some industry insight from someone who runs classes and writes books.
